    - Fiber optic cables are the transmission media that have the highest transmission speed in a network.

    - Fiber optic cable can carry more data because it has greater bandwidth than metal cables.

    - Data can be transmitted digitally. They are much thinner and lighter than metal wires.

    - Coaxial cables are the type of cable that is used by cable TV and that is common for data communications.

    - Twisted pair cable consists of two independently insulated wires twisted around one another. It helps to reduce crosstalk and electromagnetic induction.

    - Unshielded twisted pair cable is the most common type of copper telephone wiring. It reduces crosstalk or electromagnetic induction between pairs of wires. Two insulated copper wires are twisted around each other.
